Epworth Richmond Theatre Expansion

The Epworth Richmond Theatre Expansion Project, located at 89 Bridge Road, Richmond VIC, is an ongoing initiative aimed at enhancing surgical capacity within the hospital’s existing infrastructure. The project involves the addition of three new operating theatres and one catheterization (cath) lab, all situated within a landlocked hospital environment. Given the constraints of the site, the expansion is being executed with meticulous planning to integrate seamlessly with the current facilities. The design and construction phases are being managed to ensure minimal disruption to the hospital’s daily operations, maintaining the continuity of patient care throughout the development process. By increasing the number of operating theatres and introducing a dedicated cath lab, the hospital can accommodate a broader range of complex surgeries, including cardiac and vascular procedures. This development not only bolsters the hospital’s capacity but also reinforces its commitment to providing high-quality, accessible healthcare to the Richmond area and beyond.

Epworth Geelong – Stage 1

NCS is delivering a dual-scope project at Epworth Geelong, located at 1 Epworth Place in Waurn Ponds. The works involve the activation of two warm-shell operating theatres within the hospital’s surgical complex, alongside the fit-out of a cold-shell area into a new Day Oncology Unit. The oncology component includes the minor demolition of existing suites to prepare the space for clinical use. This project is being delivered under a hybrid Design and Construct / Construct Only contract, with contributions from CHC (Architect), Collective Engineering, Square 1 Engineering, and MBMpl. The works span a total area of 443 m² and represent a major investment in the hospital’s infrastructure to enhance both surgical and oncology services. Coordination across concurrent project streams has been essential to maintaining clinical operations while progressing construction in a live healthcare environment. The addition of two new operating theatres will boost the hospital’s surgical capacity and efficiency, enabling more timely and streamlined procedures. The new Day Oncology Unit will significantly improve the working environment for staff, with a purpose-built design that enhances workflow, comfort, and care delivery.
